Mexico was never high on my ‘must see’ list for our nomadic adventures. My only experience with Mexico was one a day trip to Tijuana from San Diego 8 years ago and I was not impressed with what I saw. So I really didn’t have much intention on returning. Was I in for a surprise.

Travel south east of Bangkok and you will find yourself on the small but stunning island of Ko Samui. I say small, however, it is the third largest island of Thailand, and this tropical paradise is not short of things to see and do.
